Cleansing and Claiming Your Space – How to Set Intentional Energy in Your Home

Whether you’re moving house or need to reset the energy in your space, this guide will walk you through cleansing and claiming your space—so it feels like yours in every way.

Why You Need to Cleanse Your Space

Every home holds energy. The people who lived there before you, the builders, the land, even the postcode—it all carries a vibrational imprint. When you move into a new place (or want to shift the vibe in your current one), it’s vital to intentionally clear out old energy and imprint your own.

When you energetically claim your space, you:

• Create a sense of safety and peace

• Align your environment with your goals and intentions

• Allow for healing, creativity, and calm to flourish in your daily life

Step 1: Cleansing and Claiming Your Space Before You Move In

Before any furniture enters the space, open all the windows and doors. Then, sweep or vacuum each room—even if it’s just symbolically. This removes stagnant energy and makes space for your own.

Say aloud:

“I now clean this space with love and light. I thank those who came before me and release their energy with gratitude.”

Follow with a smudging ritual using sage, incense, or palo santo. Cleanse:

• All corners

• Door frames and architraves

• Inside cupboards and wardrobes

• Every entry and exit point

Step 2: Set Intentions Loud and Clear

While smudging, speak out loud what you want from the space.

Ask yourself:

• Is this a family home?

• Do I want calm, peace, and clarity?

• Is it a home and business space?

Set your frequency clearly. For example:

“May everyone who enters this space feel lighter, happier, and more aligned than when they came in.”

Dance. Play music. Drum if you feel called. Make it yours.

Step 3: Use the Archangel Michael Home Protection Prayer

Here’s a short version of the Archangel Michael protection prayer used in this episode:

“Archangel Michael, mighty warrior of Divine Light, surround this home in your iridescent shield. Let only love, aligned energy, and healing enter. Cleanse away any lingering energy. May this be a sanctuary for peace, creativity, and joy. So be it, and so it is.”

Step 4: Salt and Cinnamon Rituals

• Salt the front door: Place a line of salt at the threshold to cleanse those entering.

• Visualise a golden waterfall of light at your entrance. This energetically clears baggage and low vibes.

• Blow cinnamon through the front door: Monthly or at new moons, to invite abundance. As you blow, say:

  “Abundance, prosperity, and joy flow to this home.”

Step 5: Simple Feng Shui Tips to Boost Your Home’s Energy

Wealth Corner:

• Stand at your front door and look in. The back left corner is your wealth corner.

• Place:

  • A healthy green plant

  • Citrine or green aventurine

  • A money tree or small water feature

Bathroom:

• Drop the toilet lid (yep, really) to stop money draining out.

• Add a jade or snake plant

• Include a metal object to balance the water energy

• Use black tourmaline or smoky quartz to ground energy

Bedroom:

• Keep under your bed clear (no clutter)

• Use pairs (2 pillows, 2 lamps) for relationship harmony

• Add rose quartz for love and restful sleep

Kitchen:

• Keep stove burners clean—it attracts abundance

• Display herbs and use wooden utensils to enhance the nurturing energy

Step 6: Grid the Property with Crystals

For house or unit living:

• Place smoky quartz and clear quartz at the four corners of your home or land

• Visualise a dome of crystal light sealing your space

• Say:

  “Only love and aligned energy may enter. All else is returned to source.”

Step 7: Call in Archangel Support

Different Archangels can support your home depending on your needs:

• Archangel Michael – Protection and strength

• Archangel Gabriel – Communication, creativity, music, animals

• Archangel Ariel – Unconditional love, peace, and compassion

• Archangel Metatron – Children, learning, spiritual growth

Call them in consciously and clearly.

Step 8: Disconnect from Your Old Home

After settling into your new home:

• Ask Archangel Michael to cut cords to your old residence

• Speak a prayer of gratitude and release to the previous space

• Let go of old pain, drama, or memories so you don’t carry them into the new chapter

Moving house isn’t just physical. It’s spiritual. A fresh home brings a fresh identity. Don’t drag the past in with you.

Step 9: Make It a Family Ritual

If you’re moving with a partner, kids, or pets:

• Get everyone involved in setting intentions

• Let each person express how they want to feel in the space

• Include your animals in the energy work—they absorb it too!

Step 10: Do Regular Energy Maintenance

• Smudge your house once a month or at the change of seasons

• Reaffirm your intentions and claim your space again

• Cleanse winter’s stagnant energy and welcome spring’s renewal

In Summation

You don’t need to overcomplicate this. Speak your intention clearly. Act with love and purpose. Trust yourself.

You are a sovereign being. You are the one who gets to choose how your home feels.

Let your space reflect the peace, power, and beauty you hold within.
